Presenting 'Musikal Sin Mixtape Vol. 7' - showcasing some of the best bands that Hertfordshire's current underground metal scene has to offer; whether you're into death metal, black metal, melodic heavy metal, sludge, industrial or a little of everything, there's something for everyone here. Here you'll find a mix of tracks taken from current and forthcoming releases, with a handful of previously unreleased exclusive tracks.
As a bonus, a handful of tracks has also been included from bands whom, whilst not Herts-based, have become popular in the area or have strong links to the local scene.
